Loft Conversions North London

Why Consider A Loft Conversion for your North London Home?

If you are thinking about what to do about a growing family or a house that is bursting at the seams, what are your options?

You could, of course, put your house on the market and start looking around for something larger. Then you’ll have the hassle and expense of estate agents, house viewings, surveyors, solicitors, form filling, packing and unpacking.  Finally, you will have significantly larger outgoings on your mortgage each month.

Another option could be to have an extension built.  Then you’ll not only have the expense of the building work and red tape, but you’ll also have months of builders muck and hassle as they work around your living area while they deplete your outside space.

The third option is a loft conversion.  Ok, there will still be builders working above you, but if you need a home improvement loan to add to your mortgage, it could be a quarter of the amount needed for a larger house.

There are other advantages to the loft conversion north london option.  Whether you need planning permission depends on the type of conversion you want and whether you live in a conservation area.  Some standard roofline conversions don’t need planning permission, so you won’t have to wait months for a decision before you can get started.  Even some Dormer loft conversions, that change the shape of the roof to arrive at the space required, may not need it.  This depends on whether it falls within your permitted development allowance.  But, if planning permission is required, it is often easier to get than for other types of extension.

You can put a wide range of rooms, windows and skylights into a roof these days.  Your attic space covers the whole of your property and is generous enough for a large bedroom and bathroom.  Or maybe you want more storage and a playroom that your children will love, and will keep their clutter away from your living area.  Perhaps you need a quieter area to do your own work, away from the mayhem of the family.  A loft with specially designed windows to maximise light makes a wonderful studio.  If your home is big enough, your loft could even house a self contained flat, with living area, kitchen and bathroom. 

Whatever type of rooms you select, a well designed and top quality loft conversion will add value to your property: up to 15% is the estimate of the Federation of Master Builders.  Many people these days are choosing this route, rather than watch their investment in the cost of selling and buying trickle away.
